About this episode
Cubs pitcher Jordan Wicks stopped by the Cubs Weekly Podcast this week to chat to hosts Elise Menaker and Andy Martínez. Wicks talked about his debut and what was dubbed “the greatest mound visit in baseball history.” He discussed his journey through pro ball, what adjustments he had to make when he reached the majors and what it’s like to pitch in a pennant race. Later in the podcast, Wicks shared his first time pitching at Wrigley, what he’s learned from Kyle Hendricks and a fun tidbit about his favorite pitch from a pitcher in the Cubs’ system. To wrap up the pod, Menaker and Martinez discuss the Spring Breakout game, Jameson Taillon’s injury and the impact that’ll have on the Cubs’ rotation.
